ACecil- I agree, Its good to see the IH 100 and IH #2 cart in action! I'am waiting untill this winter to get started on my #2 cart project. I'd have some tomatoes in too by now, But I'll use a little patience with all this wet weather we have had lately! JayBrd- Clean looking tractor-mower! I thought work was no fun, untill I got a IH Cub Cadet!

Thanks John! You're right, there's nothing like working with an IH Cub Cadet.

Mowed the lawn today with my 1641 after putting a set of Meg-Mo blades on it. Meg-Mo web site link. http://www.meg-mo.com/meg-mo-system.html

How do you like the Meg-Mo blades so far? I have read a lot of mixed reviews about them.

I like them, no clumps of grass after mowing to deal with. They don't make them to fit the 38" deck on my 1210 so I doubled up the blades by putting 2 blades on each spindle and the results seem to be about the same. I think the key is 4 cutting edges verses 2 on a regular blade.

Default Cleaned out the transaxle on the 882

3 point removed, ready to rumble.



Looks like Hy-Tran was used. Lots of encapsulated contaminants. I can tell the gasket has never been off, maybe even the first time the trans cover has been off for that matter. It was like scraping oatmeal out. I used a clean paint stir stick to muck it all out, so I wouldn't gouge up the metal surfaces.



Despite the initial horror upon opening the case, the fluid did its job and then some. The gears look like they've never seen a day's work and I didn't find one spec of metal.



I was going to cap off with a shot of nice cleaned cover reinstalled, but I somehow managed to order the wrong gasket. I bought the one that goes further forward in the pump area. I am hoping the Cub dealer I plan on picking up some Hy-Tran from, will also have the gasket on hand.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
